Automation Properties for Windows Forms applications

[Nadim2522]

I noticed that the Automation Properties are supported in WPF applications, but not in Windows Forms.

For example, in WPF we can set the Automation Properties as shown below:


<TextBox x:Name="AgeTextBox"
AutomationProperties.Name="{Binding Content, ElementName=AgeLabel}"
Text="{Binding Age, Mode=TwoWay, UpdateSourceTrigger=Explicit}"
Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="3" Margin="3"
AutomationProperties.HelpText="{Binding AgeTextBoxToolTipString,Source={StaticResource TooltipStrings}}">
<ToolTipService.ToolTip>
<ToolTip Content="{Binding AgeTextBoxToolTipString,Source={StaticResource TooltipStrings}}" />
</ToolTipService.ToolTip>
</TextBox>



How can I implement AutomationProperties in Windows Forms applications too?
